Isaías 22
1 Carga del valle de la visión: ¿Qué has ahora, que toda tú te has subido sobre los tejados?
The burden of the Valley of Vision. What ails you now, that you have all gone up to the housetops?
2 Llena de alborotos, ciudad turbulenta, ciudad alegre. Tus muertos, no muertos a cuchillo, ni muertos en guerra.
You that are full of shouting, a tumultuous city, a joyous town; your slain are not slain with the sword, neither are they dead in battle.
3 Todos tus príncipes juntos huyeron del arco: fueron atados. Todos los que en ti se hallaron, fueron atados juntamente: lejos se habían huido.
All your rulers fled away together. They were bound by the archers. All who were found by you were bound together. They fled far away.
4 Por esto dije: Dejádme; lloraré amargamente: no os trabajéis por consolarme de la destrucción de la hija de mi pueblo.
Therefore I said, "Look away from me. I will weep bitterly. Do not labor to comfort me for the destruction of the daughter of my people.
5 Porque día de alboroto, y de huella, y de fatiga por el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos es enviado en el valle de la visión, para derribar al muro, y dar grita al monte.
For it is a day of confusion, and of treading down, and of perplexity, from the LORD of hosts, in the Valley of Vision; a breaking down of the walls, and a crying to the mountains."
6 También Elam tomó aljaba en carro de hombres, y de caballeros; y Cir descubrió escudo.
Elam carried his quiver, with chariots of men and horsemen; and Kir uncovered the shield.
7 Y acaeció que tus hermosos valles fueron llenos de carros; y soldados pusieron de hecho sus haces a la puerta.
It happened that your choicest valleys were full of chariots, and the horsemen set themselves in array at the gate.
8 Y desnudó la cobertura de Judá, y miraste en aquel día hacia la casa de armas del bosque.
He took away the covering of Judah; and you looked in that day to the armor in the house of the forest.
9 Y visteis las roturas de la ciudad de David, que se multiplicaron; y juntasteis las aguas de la pesquera de abajo.
You saw the breaches of the City of David, that they were many; and you gathered together the waters of the lower pool.
10 Y contasteis las casas de Jerusalem; y derribasteis casas para fortalecer el muro.
You numbered the houses of Jerusalem, and you broke down the houses to fortify the wall.
11 E hicisteis foso entre los dos muros con las aguas de la pesquera vieja; y no tuvisteis respeto al que la hizo, ni mirasteis de lejos al que la labró.
You also made a reservoir between the two walls for the water of the old pool. But you did not look to him who had done this, neither did you have respect for him who purposed it long ago.
12 Por tanto el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos llamó en este día a llanto y a endechas, a mesar y a vestir saco.
In that day the LORD of hosts called for weeping and for mourning, for shaved heads, and for the wearing of sackcloth.
13 Y veis aquí gozo y alegría, matando vacas, y degollando ovejas, comer carne, y beber vino: comer y beber, que mañana moriremos.
But look, joy and gladness, killing cattle and killing sheep, eating flesh and drinking wine: "Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we will die."
14 Esto fue revelado a mis oídos de parte de Jehová de los ejércitos: Que este pecado no os será perdonado hasta que muráis, dice el Señor Jehová de los ejércitos.
The LORD of hosts revealed himself in my ears, "Surely this iniquity will not be forgiven you until you die," says the LORD of hosts.
15 Jehová de los ejércitos dice así: Vé, entra a este tesorero, a Sobna el mayordomo:
Thus says the LORD of hosts, "Come, go to this steward, to Shebna, who is in charge of the house, and say,
16 ¿Qué tienes tú aquí? ¿o a quién tienes tú aquí que labraste para ti aquí sepulcro, como el que labra en lugar alto su sepultura, o el que esculpe en peñasco morada para sí?
'What are you doing here, and whom have you here, that you have dug out a tomb here?' Cutting himself out a tomb on high, chiseling a habitation for himself in the rock."
17 He aquí que Jehová te trasporta de traspuesta de varón, y cubriendo te cubrirá.
Look, the LORD will overcome you and hurl you away violently. Yes, he will grasp you firmly.
18 Arrojarte ha rodando, como a bola por tierra larga de términos: allá morirás, y allá fenecerán los carros de tu gloria, vergüenza de la casa de tu señor.
He will surely wind you around and around, and throw you like a ball into a large country. There you will die, and there the chariots of your glory will be, you shame of your lord's house.
19 Y alanzarte he de tu lugar, y de tu asiento te rempujaré.
I will thrust you from your office. You will be pulled down from your station.
20 Y será, que en aquel día llamaré a mi siervo Eliacim, hijo de Elcías;
It will happen in that day that I will call my servant Eliakim the son of Hilkiah,
21 Y vestirle he de tus vestiduras; y fortalecerle he con tu talabarte; y entregaré en sus manos tu potestad; y será padre al morador de Jerusalem, y a la casa de Judá.
and I will clothe him with your robe, and strengthen him with your belt. I will commit your government into his hand; and he will be a father to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and to the house of Judah.
22 Y pondré la llave de la casa de David sobre su hombro; y abrirá, y nadie cerrará: cerrará, y nadie abrirá.
I will lay the key of the house of David on his shoulder. He will open, and no one will shut. He will shut, and no one will open.
23 E hincarle he como clavo en lugar firme; y será por asiento de honra a la casa de su padre.
I will fasten him like a nail in a sure place. He will be for a throne of glory to his father's house.
24 Y colgarán de él toda la honra de la casa de su padre, los hijos, y los nietos, todos los vasos menores desde los vasos de beber hasta todos los instrumentos de música.
They will hang on him all the glory of his father's house, the offspring and the issue, every small vessel, from the cups even to all the pitchers.
25 En aquel día, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, el clavo hincado en lugar firme será quitado, y será quebrado, y caerá; y la carga que sobre él se puso se echará a perder; porque Jehová habló.
"In that day," says the LORD of hosts, "the nail that was fastened in a sure place will give way. It will be cut down, and fall. The burden that was on it will be cut off, for the LORD has spoken it."
